Game Development How to Make a Video Game Pickups Add Pickup Particles

Instantiate collision particle

I'm playing around and doing some practice with unity in 2d environment. I have two objects colliding to one another (in 2d space) and I would like to add a particle effect to it. Here is the code that I'm running:

using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine;

public class ColisionGreen : MonoBehaviour { [SerializeField] private GameObject GreenParticle; void OnCollisionEnter (Collision col) { if(col.gameObject.name == "Green") { Instantiate (GreenParticle, transform.position,Quaternion.identity); Destroy(gameObject);

    }
}

}

Script runs but it does not show the particle effect.

Thanks,

Ali

public class ColisionGreen : MonoBehaviour{

[SerializeField]

private GameObject GreenParticle;

void OnCollisionEnter (Collision col)

{
    if(col.gameObject.name == "Green")

    {

        Instantiate (GreenParticle, transform.position,Quaternion.identity);

        Destroy(gameObject);


    }
}

}

Here is the code again.
